The statement added that "all original tickets will be honored at the rescheduled performances" and the group Wild Rivers will still open all three shows.

The tour is set to resume on Wednesday (April 2) in Columbia, Md. The North American leg of The Chicks' ongoing summer jaunt began on July 21 in Tulsa, Okla.

Ben Harper will open several concerts beginning Aug. 10 in Hershey, Penn. Maren Morris will be the supporting act for the final six dates scheduled for September. Nine appearances in Australia and New Zealand span the back half of October.

"Thank you to all our fans for making last summer so fun!" the trio wrote on social media upon announcing the tour. "It's time to get the party going again! We can't wait to see everyone!"
